Let’s look at some of the common excuses and see if we can figure out a way to work around them. For the example, the “I’m too tired” excuse. Yes, I know, we are all tired with work, kids, maybe elderly parents, etc. The

The “I’m busy excuse” is easily debunked because that same half hour you spent checking your Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and email can be spent working out. There’s no way that you can’t find half an hour a day to work out. It’s all about priorities and time management. And the gym being too far from your house is not a good excuse either since you can work out at home or go for a run/jog/walk outside around the block if you have to. You don’t need a designated place to work out. Look up some workout programs on your phone and do it in the comfort of your home. No gym needed. Not a good excuse at all.
Now let’s look at the “I’m too out of shape” excuse. Being out of shape and feeling intimidated at the gym is something that a lot of people are dealing with. To them I say, you don’t need a gym to start doing something. Go for a walk, take your bike out or go swimming, play basket ball or tennis, lift some weights at home, do calisthenics on the playground. It’s all about improving your health. If you know it’s important, do it, do something. No one is going to do it for you. If you look at your health regimen as important and vital as breathing, you will do it.
I’ve heard it said that if you want something, you find a way and if you don’t, you’ll find an excuse. What’s it going to be?
